February crowds

[momof3girls6712]

I am so excited. The kids are bouncing off the walls. The hubby is well the hubby and is worrying about everything. But the good news is we will be in Universal on Thursday.

So I was wondering if anyone has been recently or has any thoughts on our dates (Feb 10 - Feb 14). We are staying offsite and hubby is worried about the crowds. I am beginning to be a bit worried about the weather (please let there be some sun).

We bought annual passes, so we plan to take a few day trips spread out through the year. The plan is to go at a slow pace and really enjoy everything. This is so different from our Disney vacations where I have everything planned to the hour, that it is freaking hubby out. He is convinced we need a touring plan.

So I figured I would ask the experts, will we be ok just strolling through the parks or will it be so crowded that we need a plan?

One more quick question (sorry), Our passes say free valet parking but it excludes holidays and special events. The 12th starts Mardi Gras so will be not be able to use it after the 12th or just on the 12th?

Thanks all!

When you have an AP, you shouldn't worry about a plan...just stroll and take your time. As far as the valet parking goes, I think it's only restricted to nights for the concert and parade...not every night.
